GMX Secures European Rights To 'Prince Of Qin'

"Object Software is very pleased to be working with GMX Media in the European release of "Prince of Qin Gold". We are confident that GMX's enthusiasm for the title will communicate itself to gamers helping to make the game a success for all concerned” commented Richard Wallis CEO of Object Software.

Prince of Qin Gold is a little different from most RPGS in that it is set in a real historical setting with a number of characters who actually lived at the time. We hope the ambience of an ancient Chinese environment combined with some fascinating historical detail and compelling gameplay will make a potent mix for European gamers."

The game's novel features include the design of the multi-scenario and multi-ending systems, the randomly created weapons, items and enemies, an equipment creating system and the sophisticated fighting system rooted in the ancient philosophy of the Five Elements. The Great Wall of China and the Terracotta Warriors Tomb are some of the world-renowned locations the game highlights.
